If the RF Kill mode is Disabled, the procedure below will enable
it (turn off the radios). If the Mesh Point is already in
Kill All RF
mode, the procedure will disable it (turn on the internal radios):
1 Depress and hold SW1 for five seconds.
2 Release SW1.
The new setting persists over reboots and upgrades, just as
when changed through the Mesh Point GUI.
3.2.1.2 Toggling the Blackout Mode setting
The default blackout mode setting is
Disabled, in which state
the Mesh Point’s front-panel LEDs illuminate to indicate various
conditions on the Fortress Mesh Point. (Front-panel LED
behaviors and their associated meanings are covered in
Section 3.1.)
NOTE: You can
also change the
Blackout Mode setting in
the Mesh Point GUI (see
the
Software GUI Guide)
or in the Mesh Point CLI
(see the
Software CLI
Guide).
Enabling blackout mode turns all front-panel LEDs off.
If blackout mode is
Disabled, the procedure below will enable it
(turn off the front-panel LEDs). If the Mesh Point is already in
blackout mode, the procedure will disable it (turn the front-
panel LEDs back on)
1 Depress and hold SW2 for five seconds.
If you are enabling blackout mode, the LEDs all go off, once
you have held the switch long enough. If you are disabling
blackout mode, hold the switch until the LEDs turn on.
2 Release SW2.
After you have saved the change, Mesh Point LEDs will either
resume their normal operation (
Blackout Mode: Disabled), or go
completely dark (
Blackout Mode: Enabled), according to the new
setting.
NOTE: There are
no LED indica-
tions in a Mesh Point in
blackout mode (refer to
Section 3.2.1.2).
3.2.2 Rebooting the Mesh Point from the Front Panel
To reboot the Fortress Mesh Point from the front-panel:
1 Press the Reset button. All Ethernet port LEDs light solid
green.
2 Release the button.
After the Mesh Point reboots the
Stat1 LED will again light solid
green.
3.2.3 Restoring Defaults from the Front Panel
To restore the Mesh Point’s configuration settings to their
factory-default values:
1 With the Mesh Point powered on, simultaneously press and
hold
SW1 and SW2 until the Stat1 LED begins to flash
(about 10 seconds).
2 Release both switches.
After you have successfully initiated the restore operation, the
Mesh Point will reboot automatically.
